Book Club: Blood & Guts

About This Event

Join Blood & Guts to discuss modern horror books through a social and political lens!

Interested in experiencing horrors beyond your imagination? Seeking more bloody and bleak recommendations from diverse authors? Blood & Guts is the perfect place for you! We will examine the themes presented in these novels through a radical left perspective and apply it to our modern social and political climate. Many of the books read in this club explore very intense and very dark subjects so be sure to consult content warnings and check in with yourself before reading.

Book club selections are 10% off at City Lit (15% for hardcover).
